Heating element went "out" (burned up!!)
Unscrewed back of oven the plate that was holding on old element, removed it (plugged into small wire device) Plugged in new one and replaced screws to hold in place.
Removed the 2 element holding screws, disconnected the element leads & remover element. Replaced with new element. All in all a real easy job (wish all repairs went this easy) PartSelect had the element at the house within a couple days (Correct part I might add) which made the wife happy !!
1. First I pulled out the heating element from stovetop and removed old pan (no screws) very simple. 2. Put new pan in and inserted the heating element back in place.
Took the back panel off. Removed the 2 screws from the old element,removed it. Put the new one in and replaced the screws. Put the back panel on done. What took the longest was cleaning behind there !!
The oven heat element experienced a sudden "flaming meltdown"
The meltdown was a spectacular event. After clearing the kitchen of smoke and allowing the oven to cool down. I easily removed the remnents of the old element by removing the screws holding each side in place and disconnected the two wires. I then insulated the hot side wire (red) to prevent the possibility of a short when resetting the breaker in order to use the stove top. The next day I found PartSelect.com and ordered the very reasonably priced new part with optional overnight shipping. it arrived at 1:00 pm the following day. Installation was a simple reverse of the removal. The oven works great and I now keep a fire extinguisher in my kitchen.
the element got too hot and burned a bad spot in the element.
First I removed the 2 screws on each side of the element and then pulled the element out, disconnected the 2 wires that were holding the element, got the new element and connected it to the wires, slid back into position, put the screws back in that hold the element and put the racks back in and turned on for test. It was so easy I had it done before my husband arrived home from work.
First I unplugged the element that wasn't working and switched it with one that was to confirm that it was the burner element, and not the cooktop wiring, that was the problem. Once that was confirmed, I ordered a new element from partselect.com. Upon arrival of the new element several days later, I plugged it into the empty plug on the cooktop and voila, we're cooking on all 4 again.
The only difficultly I had was to bend down the ends of the new element so they were straight. Easily done with a pair of pliers. Slide the connectors from the oven over the ends, and put them back into the holes for them in the oven.Correct size socket and it was installed in minutes. I turned the oven on, and there was my heat. I used an oven thermometer to check the heat, and it was perfect. Quick service and the element was exactly the correct size.
I just plugged it into the receptacle on the stovetop and turned the thing on, and it worked! I'd been without the 4th burner for quite some time. Nice to have it back!
Removed sheet metal plate from back of oven. Disconnected two lead from existing bake element. Removed existing bake element, replaced with new one. Connected wires, replaced sheet metal.
The trick with this old oven is to access the wires from the back.
It was really easy. Removed the racks, removed the 2 quarter-inch screws with a nutdriver. Pulled the bad element out about 3-4 inches, enough to unhook the wires attached to the element with spade connectors. Unhooked the wires and removed bad element. Hooked up new element and reversed the process. Thanks PartSelect!
Took the back off, and took the terminals off. Took out the old element and put the new one in and put the terminals on and screwed it back in and put the back on. And all done.
First, trip the circuit breaker for your stove. Second I removed the two screws ( 1/4" nut driver makes this go quickly ) that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches ( double check the electricity is off with your tester )and disconnected the two wires from each side of the element. Press connectors on new element and slide back in.
